I was interested to see Dacians shown carrying their children on their shoulders like this, quite the difference compared to the usual image of a crazy barbarian Dacian with a falx chopping up Romans.(example of such a depiction is this: [link])

I love all the texture you put into this piece with your line work, it really brings it to life. I can almost see a bustling noontime marketplace in the background. Very good job at bringing them to life.

Hah, some of the details may indeed be incredible. I used a bunch of sources. Mostly it's Trajan's column and a bunch of other Roman reliefs. The decoration is pure speculation based on patterns known from Dacian neighbouring peoples and more importantly - Romanian folk dress.

The guy's knife, sica and fibula are based on real Dacian finds I've been sent photos of. (and which I made models of in 3D)
